what did you think about congressman boehner's decision not to stand, except, i believe, on michelle obama and then he stood again -- >> well, i'm a fan of standing, i mean, i think it's polite and i think there were more things that republicans could have stood up for. i think that the one place where i wish republicans wouldn't cede the ground to obama is, we should be standing for comprehensive immigration reform. the rubio plan is comprehensive in nature. we've as a party, the conservative platform is that we believe in doing all the pieces together. so, we should have stood to that. >> i think and you're right, this san example of two america. when he said the fix it first program, he described, here's what i want to do and i think the republican response to that is, it's wreck it ralph. their whole idea of his presidency is wreck it ralph, he's wrecking the country. we are seeing 48% of the country on each side of this and this speech and marco rubio's speech are going to respect that. >> martha raddatz, the president did announce the drawdown of troops from afghanistan, mentio

there's a teacher from sandy hook who is in michelle obama's box there. the president has never mentioned gun control in any of his five state of the union addresses. it was in almost every one of president clinton's. so it's been ten years since we've had gun control talked about in a state of the union address. things have changed now that the president is reelected and less scared of the n.r.a. and so i'm told by advisors he will talk about not only universal background checks but also an assault weapons ban which has virtually no chance of passing congress. >> pelley: when you think about these budget cuts to the federal government that take effect in about two weeks, we're expecting the house sergeant at arms, paul irving, to come in. and there's paul irving now. he will be announcing the president. let's listen in. >> mr. speaker, the president of the united states.
